Neither of these teams with a defense.

The uniform colors are too similar. Red shirt / white pants vs red&white shirt / black pants.

They should have never allowed a 2nd team with nearly the exact same red hue as CGY. Should be more maroon or darker or something.

I don't know that Ottawa has an answer for Hyman.

I hope it's just a case of OTT being caught off guard. The DBs can start playing deeper and the FS can stay back. Of course, that's CGY's plan so they can open up the middle...

OTT's D is decent. They won't keep giving these freebies to Maier. Plus, if Maier is waiting for the deep stuff, OTT could try hidden blitzes to catch Maier while he's waiting.

Oilers let him go?

Will this be the high-scoring barnstormer of the week? Or will that be the @BC game?

I'm going to find it very interesting how CGY's O progresses through their battle plan. So far they're going to a shorter/ground game for this series.

Interesting that Logan is listed as #1 RB but Hill is getting most of the O touches. And Logan is doing the returns? Weird. CGY doesn't specify a returner on the DC so I guess anything goes, but I don't like showing a #1 and then not playing him as specified.

J5V · August 16, 2024, 02:00:38 AM

What is that?

TecnoGenius · August 16, 2024, 02:01:20 AM

Uh oh! Lapo: "irregardless"

Lots of "thats" on screen... which That are you referring to?

Pete · August 16, 2024, 02:03:27 AM

I honestly feel depth charts are very outdated.

Players are rotated in and out. You play from different formations with different personnel groupings on almost every play on O and D.

Other than QB and the OL, a depth chart is pretty useless these days.

OTT needs to stop getting tricked by Maier's cadence. Typical Dickenson, trying to steal free yards all the time. Well, it's the smart play. Wise up OTT! We need CGY to lose!

J5V · August 16, 2024, 02:05:01 AM

What a terrible throw by Maier. Lucky that wasn't picked.
